The Baroque Land is preparing to experience an unforgettable Easter with the arrival of the first “Social Trip.” From April 7 to 12, three Dutch travel bloggers and a representative of an international tour operator will explore the unique places and traditions of the “Enjoy Barocco” destination, immersing themselves in the celebrations of Holy Week.
Discover Easter in the Baroque Land
Holy Week in Baroque Land is an extraordinary experience, full of rituals and celebrations that mix faith and folklore. The towns of Ragusa, Modica, Scicli, Ispica and Santa Croce Camerina offer a spectacle of processions and culinary traditions in an environment steeped in history and culture. This region, known for its UNESCO World Heritage monuments and breathtaking landscapes, invites tourists and locals alike to experience an Easter with a thousand faces.
A journey through culture and tradition
The “Enjoy Barocco” tourist destination promotes an immersive journey of faith, culture, enchanting places and delicious food. During these festive days, special guests can participate in events such as the “Madonna Vasa Vasa” in Modica, “U Gioia” in Scicli and many other celebrations in each municipality. These events will not only highlight the rich religious tradition, but also provide an opportunity to enjoy local gastronomic specialties.
A bridge between the Netherlands and Sicily
The idea of the “Social Trip” stemmed from a previous meeting between Dmo Enjoy Barocco and Dutch tour operators in Amsterdam. During this event, Francesco Lucifora, an art critic and lecturer at the Academy of Fine Arts in Catania and Syracuse, presented the wonders of the Baroque Land, garnering great interest. Now, Dutch travel bloggers will have the opportunity to experience firsthand what they have only imagined, becoming digital ambassadors of the experience.
Culinary and gastronomic traditions
Easter in Baroque Land would not be complete without the rich culinary tradition. Each municipality offers unique specialties, such as lamb “impanate,” “turciniuna” (lamb entrails and onion rolls), meat “pastizzi,” and sweet “turk heads.” Ricotta cassatelle, with chocolate and cinnamon variations, are a must on tables during this holiday season.
A Holy Week to Live and Share
Dutch travel bloggers will share their experiences through social media, bringing the Terra Barocca to an international audience. Through photos, videos and stories, they will convey the emotions they experienced among processions, authentic flavors and unique landscapes. This “Social Trip” represents an extraordinary opportunity to promote the destination and attract new visitors.
Conclusion
Holy Week in the Baroque Land is an experience that blends spirituality, centuries-old traditions and gastronomic culture. The first “Social Trip” with Dutch travel bloggers is an unmissable opportunity to discover and share the beauty of this region.
